Table Grids

rbuser

Hi,

I was wondering if:

1) If I have a TableGrid already setup with varying columns - and I wish
to resize the grid and space the row height evenly - is there a simple
way to do this?

2) Is there a way to "select all" rows of a tablegrid, so I'm able to
assign the same property to all of them at the same time?

It seems the only way I'm able to select a row is to right-click on a
cell, and choose Row-Select, but I can't select multiple / all rows.

Thanks & Regards

Adam.

Adam,

1. Setting the TableGrid Width and Height will resize the grid and it will
allocate the space evenly to the cols and rows. To resize the Width with the
mouse drag the right-middle sizing handle and for the Height use the
bottom-middle sizing handle, use the bottom-right to resize width and
height simultaneously. You can also use the object inspector. To select the
Grid in the object inspector click the upper-left inside corner of the grid
or select use the report tree to select the grid tree node.

2. To select a Row with the mouse, click the left inside edge of the row,
use shift-click to select multiple rows. Likewise to select a Col, click the
top inside edge of the column.

Check out the RBuilder Help topic for TppTableGrid for more details.

Hi Nard,

Thanks for your reply.

In my situation I'm looking to re-space the rows evenly.

In regards to selecting multiple rows, thanks for your suggestion. I was
trying to click on the first row in the report tree, hold down shift and
click on the next. This didn't work, however clicking just inside the
left edge as you suggested has.

ie: I have a complicated Grid layout with various columns, but the rows
are not spaced evenly (Some have a greater height than others), and I
wish to 'reset' the rows back to being evenly spaced without having to
create a whole new grid to do this.

However, I believe I can now reset the grids evenly by selecting all my
rows using your method, and then assigning a height to all of them at
the same time.

I was wondering if you could please consider the ability to select
multiple rows from within the Report Tree by holding down shift as well.

Thanks & Regards

Adam.

Hi Nard,


In addition to this, could you please also consider an option for
'select all rows', and 'select all columns'. For grids with many columns
or rows, it would be handy to be able to select all of these in one
action. :-)

Thanks & Regards

Adam.
